Prakaisri, we really appreciate the opportunity to partner with you on this opportunity. This is why I recommended shipping directly from our factory in Germany, as it would afford you the best possible discount. Typically, we sell our McDaniel Controls pressure gauges from our stock (having arrived at the McDaniel Controls distribution center in Luling, LA). As such, we would normally price each of the gauge models quoted at 7.5% higher price points. Thus, going direct from Germany, you immediately are seeing a 7.5% savings. Additionally, we have already taken into account that given the size of the order, we would provide a discount. The total discount from list price that we have allowed on each of these gauge models is 40% (which includes the direct from factory discount). I see this as quite significant. With such a total discount, it means our margins are already thin. As a result, we cannot discount an additional 5% further, from the quoted prices already provided. We would be pleased to move forward, as we feel that we have created a win-win, for our respective businesses, with the prices already quoted.
Thank you for your business and the support of Specialloy.
